Abstract
A bag holder for a blast freezing process includes a bag tray. The bag tray is genderless and can be combined with an identical bag tray to form the bag holder. The bag holder includes a basin, side walls, and an end wall. The first and second side walls each include a set of alternating extended and recessed sections and a channel extending through at least a portion of the set of alternating extended and recessed sections. The alternating extended and recessed sections are offset from one another such that where a set on one side wall has an extended section, the set on the other side wall has a recessed section and vice versa. Methods include forming these bag trays, and placing a bag in one bag tray, then joining another bag tray to form the holder around the bag.
